tOfficial "Why did I draft Shaun Alexander?" Thread
Seriously, dude has 39 yards rushing and 1 fumble lost, giving him 1 point in my league.
WTF, Shaun?

I guess some of it might be that snappy Lions defense, and some more of it might be that Steve Hutchinson is gone, but I thought Super Bowl losses are supposed to make superstars "hungrier to succeed."
Now some guy named Maurice Morris is getting Shaun's carries?

Morris has been there a while. He had some nice runs against the Lions because when they take Alexander out, the defense expects the pass. The Lions defense is gonna be tough this year, especially if their front four keep playing like that. I wouldn't worry about Alexander though, it's early.

the curse is crap. Eddie George lost in the super bowl by 1 yard and had a mvp year how is that a curse. Plus most people are on the cover after a faboulos year so of course their numbers are gonna go down

I had an auto-draft (i ****ing hate auto-drafts) and my first two picks were Shaun Alexander and Dominack Davis. It's safe to say I'm in last by a mile.

I'm glad that the guy with the #1 pick took Alexander, leaving LT for me at #2! :D

I really wanted LaDanian Tomlinson. However, when he went first, I had to go the safe route and take Alexander second overall.

You guys did hear that he wanted (and was almost ready) to play this weekend right? He's got a bye week next week, he should ready to go after that. Can't guarantee it'll be the Shaun Alexander of years past, but this is not the time to abandon him.
